Anti Abortion Protesters Target Clinics Landlord Outside School

These people just won't give up. Instead of protesting outside the clinic itself, they've turned up at a Middle School, attended by the landlords daughter.

They even held up banners with the mans name and address, and even his photo on it! This man is a landlord, he has nothing at all to do with abortion! Who do these nutcases think they are?

It's a legitimate expression of free speech, guaranteed by the First Amendment.

 

Now just wait for these kids to get bullied like crazy because their father supports "baby-killing".

Yes, that's some real respect for life and children. Let's harass the children of the people you hate and cause them some serious harm. Lovely.

 

That may be so, but it doesn't mean it is right, what they are doing. These kids have nothing to do with what their father does for a living - all he does is rent a property to someone who happens to perform abortions!

 

So someone who knowlingly rents a property to someone else for the purposes of ciommitting homicides is just fine to you? Why would anyone object, right?

Howevere, I agree the guys children have nothing to do with the renting of the butcher shop.

 

A person can rent a property to anyone they please. They do not deserve to be harassed for it.

 

Maybe not, if it's interpreted as a threat. Which it is, pure attempt at intimidation, since what they are really saying is, "We can hurt your kid if you don't play like we demand."

 

That is your opinion.

 

Indeed. Since, apparently, these anti-choicers believe that the sins of the father weigh up on the children, then it would not be wrong to put to death the unborn children of murderers and others who commit major crimes, no?

 

So, if the girl is responsible for the perceived sins of her father, doesn't that mean unborn children of murderers are as responsible as the murderers themselves? Can abortion be imposed as a death penalty for those sinful fetuses?

 

Dood, its not even 5:00, step awa from the beer.

 

So why make the child suffer for the actions of her parents?

 

I wonder if you would like it if I showed up outside your gate and harassed your kids?

 

Really? So, if someone rents property to the KKK, you are alright with that?

I do agree, the kids shouldn't be harassed.

 

Sounds like those protestors are following the lead of the unions who went to protest at bankers homes...harrassing & frightening their children.

I don't think either type of protest is appropriate, and shouldn't be done.

 

The KKK have their civil rights to free speech and free expression in this country too. Do you believe we should trample all over their First Amendment rights just because we don't like what they have to say?

I personally could care less if someone leases out property to the KKK so long as they aren't using the property to do anything illegal. Of course it would be up to the landlord to determine this on their own. And if they are doing anything illegal the authorities should be involved.

As it currently stands abortion is not illegal and the man leasing out property to an abortion provider is not doing anything wrong.

 

The protest strategy is sick. I have no respect for it....

 

Suffering vs being dismembered alive, which is more cruel hmmmmmm let me think.....

 

I don't rent a human slaughterhouse to the slaughterers. But if you want to come protest outside my house come on, but you probably will not enjoy your experience!

 

Is this what you call emotional appeal and hypocrisy?

 

Nothing is dismembered. The fetus feels nothing. You could cut off a comatose mans leg and he wouldn't feel a thing, or suffer, and nor does a fetus.

 

There's something special about this particular case of harassment. The victims and friends organized themselves and decided to fight back with many phone calls and e-mails of their own. I'm not sure whether it's a good way to deal with the issue, but I understand that ignoring the bullies hasn't solved the problem either. Here is a link to the "Voice of Choice" website:

The ACLU fought in court so that the Nazis could march in Skokie, which was a village populated by Jewish survivors of the Holocaust.

The courts have consistently upheld the rights of the Westboro Baptist Church to protest at military funerals.

If we do not defend the First Amendment for people who's message we despise, we do not have a First Amendment.

I do not like the idea of protesting at a child's school to punish the father.

But we must all recognize that this is legitimate First Amendment activity.

 

So now you think it's okay to mutilate people in a coma. See how the culture of death spreads? You are part of the problem.

 

She also seems to know nothing of the mechanics of abortions.
